Polymer 1.x: Applying iron-media-query inside dom-repeat to determine screen width

141 Views Asked by Let Me Tink About It At 10 November 2016 at 22:37

I want to calculate the screen width and assign that result to a number between, say, 0 and 3, for example. I am trying to use iron-media-query to do this.

I expect to see (logged to the console) one of the queries return a value of true and the other three to return false. However, they all return a value of undefined.

What am I doing wrong?

FYI, After I solve this, I plan to add a conditional to the queryResult() method to store the value of index when queryMatches is true.

e.g.

queryResult: function() {
  ...
  if(this.queryMatches) {
    this.set('mediaWidth', index);
  }
  ...
}

Two problems:

You're incorrectly binding the results of each iron-media-query to a single queryMatches property, so each iteration would overwrite the results of the previous iteration. To correct this, you could bind to a sub-property of the item iterator (e.g., item.queryMatches), which requires changing the type of queries from a String array into an Object array. Then, you could pass item.queryMatches to queryResult().
Your demo is missing the HTML import for <iron-media-query>, so queryMatches would always be undefined.

Here's a demo with the corrections:
